A slender vine on an old oak hung,
And clasped its scaly rind :
From trunk to top its pennons flung
iVud laughed Lo scorn the wind.
And men who passed the way along,
Admired, aud olt would speak,
Of the kindly law ihat gave the strong
To aid aud shield tlie weak.
* Indeed it was aw lair a sight,
Aa any i" the land-
To see lha puny parasite,
Upborne by tree eo grand.
One day the vine in anger said,
"My tendril* I'll untie—
Alone, alolt I'll rear my head,
Aud leave lhe oak Lo die.''
The winds were out, and strong tbey grew,
And hustled through the air ;
They whistled and blew the old oak through,
Aud laid its branches bare.
The tempest ceased : its rage was o'er,
The sunbeams gaily shine ;
The sturdy oak stood as before—
Low lay tbe lifeless vine.— Vanity Fair.
Mutilation ok TbbaSDBY NoT._a.~It is stated
that evidence has been received at the Treasury
Department thut the work of mutilating treasury
notes has becom . quite a business, and not an unprofitable one. A Washington correspondent says :
"Tbe mutilator takeB one $10 note and tears oil'
a tenth part ou oue corner, aud passes off the note
for $10—uobody questioning lhat it is perfectly
good. He takes another nole of tbo same denomination and tears ofl'a tenth part on another corner
aud so uutil he has secured tour comers. Then he
takes auother note and tears out a piece from the
upper side right; from another note a piece from
the upper side left, next, to the corners ; from two
more notes a piece is extracted from the lower side
right of one, and a piece from the lower side left
of the other; from the ninth note ho removes a
piece from the right of the middle, and from the
tenth and last note a piece from tbe left middle-
Then ho has ten parts ot what appears to be a single S10 treasury note, wliich he ingeniously pastes
together, and passes off under the plea that the
note was accidentally torn to pieces, hut is nevertheless just as good as if it were whole. Singular
as it may seem, this business has become so extensive that the attention of the governmeut has been
called to it, and it ia decided, as the only effectual
way of checking the evil, will be not to redeem
any note at par unless it is whole, aud to deduct a
dollar for every teuth part of a note torn off, and
In that proportion for larger amounts removed. 1
make the ahove statement upon the authority of
the Treasurer of the United States.
Subterranean* Railway in London.—A subterranean railway is uow in an advanced state of construction, running about four aud a half miles uu-
der the city of London. It commences al Victoria
street, in tbe tn'idBt of what was formerly a disreputable thoroughfare, but is now a commou center for
the Great Northern, tho London, Chatham and
Dover, and the Metropolitan lines. From that
point it pusses eastwardly, having a large nu
of intermediate stations. Ou the occasiou of
cent trip made through a portion o( its lengih, the
air was fouud to bo perfectly sweet, aud free Irom
all unpleasantness. The locomotives used condense the steam uud consume their own smoke, so
that neither gas nor vapor is perceptible, The sur
face of the rail is made of steel. The line ia made
for two gages, aud it has a double track throughout. The carriages will be roomy, well ventilated, and lighted with portable gas. It is expected
that the road will be opened about the middle of
June.
Andy Johnson -ltd Joe Holt against tUe
Administration.
Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee, in a speech at
Columbus, Ohio, in October last, Baid :
" I would uot be personal, but on abolitionist is
as much a secessionist, as any to be found iu South
Carolina. Now aa much as these disuuiouists of
both cliisses abuse each other, they nevertheless
th unite in laying violent hands upon the gov
eminent that never harmed either. If I were an
abolitionist, I would break up the Union ; for the
disruption of the Uuiou must inevitably destroy
and obliterate slavery. Hence we are for tbe pro-
Bee&tioo of this war to save the government as
founded by our fathers ; for restoring the consti
tulion as we received it, without regard to tbe
peculiar institutions of any State. That a seces-
! Bloalst and an abolitionist are ou a par, I can prove
iby a simple syllogieni—an abolitionist is a dis-
1 unionist : a dlBunionlst is a secessionist; therefore
secessionist ie an abolitionist."
Joseph Holt, of Kentucky, who has been passing
himself off ior a Union man, said :
» We make no apology for this wicked effort in
the south to destroy the government. We grant
Uie" necessity ot suppressing it. But abolitionism,
that has produced it, must also be suppressed.
Abolitionism and secossionism must be buried in
fhe same political grave."
Now if abolitionism means anything it means
the abolition of slavery, and by this interpretation
neither Mr. Johuson nor Mr. Holt, yield that "unconditional support to the Administration" which
in California is made the teat of loyalty by the
republicans ; but on the contrary quite the reverse,
as for instance Congress has passed and the President haa approved the following abolition acts : j
1. A Resolution offering a premium to the States ,
to free their slaves,
2. Au Act abolishing slavery in the District of
Columbia.
An Act allowing negroes to be employed in
tho important public service of carrying mails,
-1. An Article of War making it a peual offence
in an officer of the army or navy to comply with
the requirements of the fugitive slave law.
Neither Johnson nor Holt would be allowed to
vote the Uuion ticket in California. They are not
"sound on the goose," unless it be that goose
which the republicans are now picking—the pub-

The End of a. Brain Hunter.—Herman Gollz
passed many years in au auatomical examination
Of that delicate visus, the dead brain, endeavoring
to discover some coincident between its marvelous structure and ita important uses. To this end
the whole concentrated force of his acute intellect
waa directed. Sometimes he was elevated hy the
hope that he had ascertained tbe source of tbe reasoning faculty, and tbe teat iu which the passions
are generated ; but these gleams of success wen
transient, aud succeded by total ob-curi y. At on.
period, he conceived he had actually drawn aside
the curtain, and beheld the mysterious processes
that are performed in tho occult laboratory of
nature ; hut be confessed himself deceived, und
afterward acknowledged the curtain itself was a
mere delusion. Exhausted by these sudden alternations of hope and disappointment the fabric of
bis owu understanding j ave way, and in a moment
of despair he hung himself in his dissecting room.
A School Mistress had among her scholars an
incorrigible little miss, upon whom " moral
suasion'1 seemed lo kave no effect. One day out
of all patience with Borne misdemeanor on the
part of the child, she called her up to the desk and
expostulated with her on the impropriety of her
conduct, setting forth tho enormity of her offenses,
etc. The young girl paid little attention at first
but at leiigth she seemed to realize her guilt more
fully, and watching her teacher closely, seemed to
driuk in every word she said. The lady began to
bave hope ; her instructions evldeutly making an
impression. At length ehe made a Blight pause,
when up spoke the child, with eyes Rxed upon her
governess, and with the utmost gravity said :
" Why, Miss JoneB, your upper jaw don't move a
bitl" That was the end of thatdiscourae.
Shoes* as a Beverage.—A writer
York Commercial Advertiser, iu a long article On
pipes aud tobacco, says :
The method of smoking sanctioned by fashion
(in olden times) was to inhale tbe smoke through
the mouth, passing it out through the passage of
tbe nose, by which the intoxicating qualities ofthe
tobacco were more brought out than in the modern
uner of exhaling the vapor from the lips. The
smoke was thus brought into coutact with the
delicate membranes of the throat and brain. To
ihis method cf stimulating was applied the term
tobacco drinking, commou in the technology of
that time. The Cuban, Mexican and South American, at this day, drink smoke from their cigarri-
toB, as our ancestors did trom their pipes ; every
whiff of the deliciously scented and not Btrong
tobacco being drawn into tbe throat as far as tbe
divergence ot the bronchial tubes, where it is ex-
baled either through the mouth or uose. The accomplished exhaler will draw a copious breath
from his cigar, calmly drink a glass of water, and
then puff* out the un looked 1'or clouds with an airof
necromatic unconcern. Tbe cigar being light and
brief, if not too frequently repeated, cau be smoked innocently tbis way, but the young man who
indulges iu cigars thus respired is following a bad
[business. A choice Havauna burned as it were,
iuside the bronchia, gives a feeling not unlike the
j enchantment of opium, aud quite as destructive to
le and health.

thai every body who died iu battle for his country

The Dutch is Java.—The European houses in
Java are all built with deep front aud back verandas, joined in the centre of the house, by a wide
opeu gallery with rooms on each side. The usual
siiting-rooia in the evening is the front veranda
a which, always brilliantly lighted up, the family
collect after dinner to receive visits. The whole
interior of the house is Ut with argand lamps, nn
unusual number of which give light to the apartment iu which the family are sitting, eight hanging and four moderator lamps frequently burning
in the front veranda alone. Driving at night along
the streets ofBatavia, in the European quarter,
you are carried past a succession of such houses
lighted as if for an illumination, with the family
visible in the front veranda, a short distance from
the road, all quite regardless of lookers-on, engaged in their usual occupations, reading, some working, and others talking. The usual dinner hour is
hall-past six, and from eight till eleven are the
visiting hours. At certain houses there are fixed
evenings in the week for general reception ; but a
visitor is always welcome on other days, when the
family aro at home. The custom is tor young men,
after dinner, to drive along the streets, whence,
observing which of their friends' houses are lighted up, tbey are enabled, without the trouble ol
previous inquiry, aud without giving offence to
those whose houses are passed by, to determine
where their evenings may be spent.
An address, unique of ita kind, has just been
presented to tbe Queen Victoria. It comes from
Wolverhamptoni and is an address of condolence
from the widows of that neighborhood to tbe royal
widow. Many of the poor women, widows of colliers, walked several miles into Wolverhampton
with the single purpose of aflixiug their names to
the paper.

It affords us great pleasure to announce that the
very pious and honorable Edward Stanley, Military
Governor of North Carolina, has made au ass of
himself on the start, aud is likely to be recalled
and his commission revoked, We have ever regarded this gentleman as a double-distilled highly
perfumed, immensely concentrated, and most exceedingly sublimated humbug. He is so d—d
pious that wo never knew just bow to take him.
When lie left this city, the w.hoiopress brayed over
his departure, except ourselves. Cant, hypocrisy
and snuilliug pretention to religion is our abomination ; and whenever we see an individual uf
this kind, rising like a soap-bubble, sell-inllated,
we rejoice to see him explode, collapse and bust
bis bi ler. The pious Mr. Stanley didn't want to
educate Negroes—turned Nigger-catcher. Cou-
scions that be had no business to accept the position
of Military Governor of his contjuered native State,
he tries to conciliate his Carolina friends by failing
in his duty to the Government. We are glad he
has been exploded. Eet chloride of lime be scattered over bis past history.

The Washington correspondent|;1 ' he Sunday
AA yen,-:, ObPHBCB 0. KSRB, gives the lollowing
description ofadnel fought between two officers
u! tho M.a-.ki-vi 1 r.v-v'iv
In tbe evening there was a ball, to which a mini*
ber of the women o! Amerlc were Invites. Cap -
tain VHtlam Browu came up from Andomac on
purpose to attend, and looked, as tlie General of
(he Mackerel Itrigade genteoly sseil it, like n
hag of indigo that had been ont without B.U UTD
brella In a hard shower of brass buttons. Tbe general has auacuto perception of the Beuutiful my
hoy.
Villiam took lhe Oa h qIz times, and then took
a survey of the festive scene ihrough the bottom ol
a tumbler. Th* first person bQieoogloeed was the
youngest Miss Mui-vjiiir* wuls/.ing like a dunuiged
balloon, with Oaptaln Hob Shorty. Captain Bob
was spinning around like u dislocated pair ot
tongs, and smirked like a Imppy fiend. Villiam
gave one stare, put the tumbler Id his pocket, aud
then made a iioo-Iine iu.- the pair.
"Mtffl Unggtns" said be, "you'll oblcege m0
hy dropping that air mess of brass buttons and
moustaches, and dance with me."
"I beg your pardiug, sir,"'.said tfles.MuggtDS*
with dignity " but I obooses my own company."
'■ Villiam," eaid Captain Hob Shorty, " if you
don't take that big nose of yours away, it will bo
my painful duty to Bet it a little further hack in
your repulsive countenance."
Then Villiam toa* mail. He hastily buttoned
his coat up to his ueck, took a bite of tobacco, and
says he:
One of the most unprincipled '-best public instructors" has boeu for somo time sounding a note
of warniug, which is significant of the future, lie
prophesies in.his paper that the day of statesmen
and civilians is over in the Uuited States ; that
the "politicians," as he calls them, who "have
corrupted tbe fountains of legislation," " polluted
the purity" ol Government, ' broken up the Union'
by their " game of spoils and plunder," and '■ hail
the war as tbeir harvest time, robbing and cheating the Government," and perpetrating " all manner of villainy," will he driven out by " the men
wbo are now fighting the battles of the country,"
and who must take the place of those " scoundrels"
In the Government and Congress. The victory ofthe
Union will not be complete 'till the rank and liie
army and the officers educated at West Point,' who
hav<j saved the country, "drive the public robbers
.ont of place and power." Suppose an English w
had used such language of the public men of the
United Slates? And yet the same writer in lhe
same paper sneaks of tiie " pioleuoe and rullbuiism
of the conduct, of the English press" towards
America.
A New York paper says that "General M'Clol-
lan's position before York I own Is like that of a
man who is plaintiff in the British Court ol Chancery." More like it than probable tho writer was
aware. For, on examining the map, we perceive
that at the South is Sleepy Hole Hollow, Unit
when we have got to Half-Way House we find that.
we bave another Halt-Way House to rSBob. and
thon a third Hail'-Way House, that Com furl Llgbl
House is far behind, tbat io fall view is Jail Is!a-
and that the whole is commanded by Bfg Bethel.
No Nffiwa.—A strong conviction pervades the
public mind that tho Northern men have come to
grief. We are so thoroughly convinced of thi
truthfulness ot the authorized m-ws that b ta here
tofore reached us, that we led convinced that Lhe
silence proceeds from ■"'."•mo overs;gbt—-not overthrow. —-——
The soul of Mr, John Brown, the Second Father
of his Country, and the source of our National
Anthem, is still marching on to glory ; and. as a
Consequence, the material interests of the country,
and the civil rights of the people, are rapidly advancing by the pure example of this greatest ol
modern philanthropi,sts and patriots. Like ths
Savior, John r*ii:Tered, and iii-e the Savior, wil;
redeem liis people—of Vankt-cfoin,
The consistory at Rome, some time since, voted
the canonizing of certain defunct Japanese.
Whilst here, in enlightened An.ovion. we voui'l
not believe a Coolie on his oath, " no way you osg
tix it,'-' in benighted Italy the patcmai h-v ol
the Holy Father limls solace iu e:\nomzin;-; dear!
Japanese martyrs, and canoaizioj; Italian martyrs.
" Captain Shorty, we have lived like br-rotbers ;
I have borrowed many a ((uarter of you ; and you
promised that wheu I died you would wrap mo
up in tho American flag. But uow you are mine
enemy, and—ha I bai—I am yours! Wilt fightV*
"I wilt,'-' responded Captain Bob Shorty.
' Twas enough,
la teu minutes these desperato mon stood face to
face on the banks ofthe Potomac, tbc ghastly moon
Looking down upon them through a rift In tlio
passing clouds, and one of the First Families of
Viginin pickets squinting at them from a neighboring bush. Villiam';. second wus Col. Wobert
Woherston of the Western Cavalry. Captain Bob
Shorty's was Samival Smythe. The fifth of tim
party was a fat surgeon from St. Louis, who stood
with his sleeves rolled up and n big jack-knife iubia
hand. The surgeon also had a stomach pump with
him, nnd twelve boxes of bilious pills. The weapons were pistols, and the distance seventy paces.
Captain Villiam Brown was observed to shiver,
as he took his place,"nnd was so cold, that he took
aim at the surgeou instead of tbc antagonist. Tho
surv'rri.. cai!,;,; his atiention to this little error;
nnd he immediately rectified liis inistuke by pointing his weapon point blank at Samival Smythe.
"You blood-thirsty cubs?" shouted Samival
with great emotion, " what are you pointing at
me lor t"
"I was thinking of my poor-grand-molber,"
said Villiam, feelingly, and immediately fired at
the moon.
Simultaneously, Captain Bob Shorty sent his
bullet skimming along tho ground in the direction
Of Washington, and said that he wanted to go
home.
Tho surgeon decided that nobody was hurt; and
the two infuriated principals commenced tore-load
their pistols wdth horrible calmness.
Now it came to pass, that while Captain Villiam
Brown was stooping dowu fixing his weapon, hia
hand became unsteady, and he pulled the trigger,
without meaning to. Bangl went the concern,
and whiz,! went the ball right between tbe legs of
Colonel Wobert Woherston, causing that uoblo
oflicer to skip four times and swear terribly.
" Treachery I" said Captain Bob Shorty, spinning
around in great excitement, and letting drive at
Samival Smythe, who happened to be nearest.
"Gaul dura ye'." screumed Samival, turning
purple in the face, " you've gone aud shot tbe rim
off my cap,"
" I couldn't help it," said Bob, looking into tlio
barrel of his pistol with great intensity of gezo.
At thia moment, Villiam, who had loaded up
again, tried to put the hummer of his woapou dowu
on the cap ; but his band slipped, and the chargo
exploded, !):-u king flu.- hid ns oi tho ful surgeon, ami
sending the bullet clean through bis stomach—
pump.
The surgeon just took a Beat, my boy, rubbed his
shins half a second, took four boxes of pills, and
then began to cuss. Marshal ltynders can cuia
some, my boy, but that fat surgeon can beat him
and all the custom-house together.
But suddenly a strange sound reduced all else to
silence. It came first like the runibliug of u barrel
Of potatoes, and then grew into a fiendish chuckle.
It was fouud to proceed from a neighboring bush ;
aud on proceeding thither, the party beheld asight
to make the pious weep. Rolling about ta tbe
brush, was oue of the First Families of Virginia
pickets, kir-kii;:- l.is li.;i-u: i;::o the air aiid i;;:::;!]ii-v-

Bee such a good one as tbat gay old duel. If you'd
kept on," said ';:■; pfoket, turning purple in the
face. "I really reckou I should bave a busted

A slender vine on an old oak hung,
And clasped its scaly rind :
From trunk to top its pennons flung
iVud laughed Lo scorn the wind.
And men who passed the way along,
Admired, aud olt would speak,
Of the kindly law ihat gave the strong
To aid aud shield tlie weak.
* Indeed it was aw lair a sight,
Aa any i" the land-
To see lha puny parasite,
Upborne by tree eo grand.
One day the vine in anger said,
"My tendril* I'll untie—
Alone, alolt I'll rear my head,
Aud leave lhe oak Lo die.''
The winds were out, and strong tbey grew,
And hustled through the air ;
They whistled and blew the old oak through,
Aud laid its branches bare.
The tempest ceased : its rage was o'er,
The sunbeams gaily shine ;
The sturdy oak stood as before—
Low lay tbe lifeless vine.— Vanity Fair.
Mutilation ok TbbaSDBY NoT._a.~It is stated
that evidence has been received at the Treasury
Department thut the work of mutilating treasury
notes has becom . quite a business, and not an unprofitable one. A Washington correspondent says :
"Tbe mutilator takeB one $10 note and tears oil'
a tenth part ou oue corner, aud passes off the note
for $10—uobody questioning lhat it is perfectly
good. He takes another nole of tbo same denomination and tears ofl'a tenth part on another corner
aud so uutil he has secured tour comers. Then he
takes auother note and tears out a piece from the
upper side right; from another note a piece from
the upper side left, next, to the corners ; from two
more notes a piece is extracted from the lower side
right of one, and a piece from the lower side left
of the other; from the ninth note ho removes a
piece from the right of the middle, and from the
tenth and last note a piece from tbe left middle-
Then ho has ten parts ot what appears to be a single S10 treasury note, wliich he ingeniously pastes
together, and passes off under the plea that the
note was accidentally torn to pieces, hut is nevertheless just as good as if it were whole. Singular
as it may seem, this business has become so extensive that the attention of the governmeut has been
called to it, and it ia decided, as the only effectual
way of checking the evil, will be not to redeem
any note at par unless it is whole, aud to deduct a
dollar for every teuth part of a note torn off, and
In that proportion for larger amounts removed. 1

the Treasurer of the United States.
Subterranean* Railway in London.—A subterranean railway is uow in an advanced state of construction, running about four aud a half miles uu-
der the city of London. It commences al Victoria
street, in tbe tn'idBt of what was formerly a disreputable thoroughfare, but is now a commou center for
the Great Northern, tho London, Chatham and
Dover, and the Metropolitan lines. From that
point it pusses eastwardly, having a large nu
of intermediate stations. Ou the occasiou of
cent trip made through a portion o( its lengih, the
air was fouud to bo perfectly sweet, aud free Irom
all unpleasantness. The locomotives used condense the steam uud consume their own smoke, so
that neither gas nor vapor is perceptible, The sur
face of the rail is made of steel. The line ia made
for two gages, aud it has a double track throughout. The carriages will be roomy, well ventilated, and lighted with portable gas. It is expected
that the road will be opened about the middle of
June.
Andy Johnson -ltd Joe Holt against tUe
Administration.
Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee, in a speech at
Columbus, Ohio, in October last, Baid :
" I would uot be personal, but on abolitionist is
as much a secessionist, as any to be found iu South
Carolina. Now aa much as these disuuiouists of
both cliisses abuse each other, they nevertheless
th unite in laying violent hands upon the gov
eminent that never harmed either. If I were an
abolitionist, I would break up the Union ; for the
disruption of the Uuiou must inevitably destroy
and obliterate slavery. Hence we are for tbe pro-
Bee&tioo of this war to save the government as
founded by our fathers ; for restoring the consti
tulion as we received it, without regard to tbe
peculiar institutions of any State. That a seces-
! Bloalst and an abolitionist are ou a par, I can prove
iby a simple syllogieni—an abolitionist is a dis-
1 unionist : a dlBunionlst is a secessionist; therefore
secessionist ie an abolitionist."
Joseph Holt, of Kentucky, who has been passing
himself off ior a Union man, said :
» We make no apology for this wicked effort in
the south to destroy the government. We grant
Uie" necessity ot suppressing it. But abolitionism,
that has produced it, must also be suppressed.
Abolitionism and secossionism must be buried in
fhe same political grave."
Now if abolitionism means anything it means
the abolition of slavery, and by this interpretation
neither Mr. Johuson nor Mr. Holt, yield that "unconditional support to the Administration" which
in California is made the teat of loyalty by the
republicans ; but on the contrary quite the reverse,
as for instance Congress has passed and the President haa approved the following abolition acts : j
1. A Resolution offering a premium to the States ,
to free their slaves,
2. Au Act abolishing slavery in the District of
Columbia.
An Act allowing negroes to be employed in
tho important public service of carrying mails,
-1. An Article of War making it a peual offence
in an officer of the army or navy to comply with
the requirements of the fugitive slave law.
Neither Johnson nor Holt would be allowed to
vote the Uuion ticket in California. They are not
"sound on the goose," unless it be that goose
which the republicans are now picking—the pub-
C.—San Joaquin% Republican.

The End of a. Brain Hunter.—Herman Gollz
passed many years in au auatomical examination
Of that delicate visus, the dead brain, endeavoring
to discover some coincident between its marvelous structure and ita important uses. To this end
the whole concentrated force of his acute intellect
waa directed. Sometimes he was elevated hy the
hope that he had ascertained tbe source of tbe reasoning faculty, and tbe teat iu which the passions
are generated ; but these gleams of success wen
transient, aud succeded by total ob-curi y. At on.
period, he conceived he had actually drawn aside
the curtain, and beheld the mysterious processes
that are performed in tho occult laboratory of
nature ; hut be confessed himself deceived, und
afterward acknowledged the curtain itself was a
mere delusion. Exhausted by these sudden alternations of hope and disappointment the fabric of
bis owu understanding j ave way, and in a moment
of despair he hung himself in his dissecting room.
A School Mistress had among her scholars an
incorrigible little miss, upon whom " moral
suasion'1 seemed lo kave no effect. One day out
of all patience with Borne misdemeanor on the
part of the child, she called her up to the desk and
expostulated with her on the impropriety of her
conduct, setting forth tho enormity of her offenses,
etc. The young girl paid little attention at first
but at leiigth she seemed to realize her guilt more
fully, and watching her teacher closely, seemed to
driuk in every word she said. The lady began to
bave hope ; her instructions evldeutly making an
impression. At length ehe made a Blight pause,
when up spoke the child, with eyes Rxed upon her
governess, and with the utmost gravity said :
" Why, Miss JoneB, your upper jaw don't move a
bitl" That was the end of thatdiscourae.
Shoes* as a Beverage.—A writer
York Commercial Advertiser, iu a long article On
pipes aud tobacco, says :
The method of smoking sanctioned by fashion
(in olden times) was to inhale tbe smoke through
the mouth, passing it out through the passage of
tbe nose, by which the intoxicating qualities ofthe
tobacco were more brought out than in the modern
uner of exhaling the vapor from the lips. The
smoke was thus brought into coutact with the
delicate membranes of the throat and brain. To
ihis method cf stimulating was applied the term
tobacco drinking, commou in the technology of
that time. The Cuban, Mexican and South American, at this day, drink smoke from their cigarri-
toB, as our ancestors did trom their pipes ; every
whiff of the deliciously scented and not Btrong
tobacco being drawn into tbe throat as far as tbe
divergence ot the bronchial tubes, where it is ex-
baled either through the mouth or uose. The accomplished exhaler will draw a copious breath
from his cigar, calmly drink a glass of water, and
then puff* out the un looked 1'or clouds with an airof
necromatic unconcern. Tbe cigar being light and
brief, if not too frequently repeated, cau be smoked innocently tbis way, but the young man who
indulges iu cigars thus respired is following a bad
[business. A choice Havauna burned as it were,
iuside the bronchia, gives a feeling not unlike the
j enchantment of opium, aud quite as destructive to
le and health.

The Dutch is Java.—The European houses in
Java are all built with deep front aud back verandas, joined in the centre of the house, by a wide
opeu gallery with rooms on each side. The usual
siiting-rooia in the evening is the front veranda
a which, always brilliantly lighted up, the family
collect after dinner to receive visits. The whole
interior of the house is Ut with argand lamps, nn
unusual number of which give light to the apartment iu which the family are sitting, eight hanging and four moderator lamps frequently burning
in the front veranda alone. Driving at night along
the streets ofBatavia, in the European quarter,
you are carried past a succession of such houses
lighted as if for an illumination, with the family
visible in the front veranda, a short distance from
the road, all quite regardless of lookers-on, engaged in their usual occupations, reading, some working, and others talking. The usual dinner hour is
hall-past six, and from eight till eleven are the
visiting hours. At certain houses there are fixed
evenings in the week for general reception ; but a
visitor is always welcome on other days, when the
family aro at home. The custom is tor young men,
after dinner, to drive along the streets, whence,
observing which of their friends' houses are lighted up, tbey are enabled, without the trouble ol
previous inquiry, aud without giving offence to
those whose houses are passed by, to determine
where their evenings may be spent.
An address, unique of ita kind, has just been
presented to tbe Queen Victoria. It comes from
Wolverhamptoni and is an address of condolence
from the widows of that neighborhood to tbe royal
widow. Many of the poor women, widows of colliers, walked several miles into Wolverhampton
with the single purpose of aflixiug their names to

It affords us great pleasure to announce that the
very pious and honorable Edward Stanley, Military
Governor of North Carolina, has made au ass of
himself on the start, aud is likely to be recalled
and his commission revoked, We have ever regarded this gentleman as a double-distilled highly
perfumed, immensely concentrated, and most exceedingly sublimated humbug. He is so d—d
pious that wo never knew just bow to take him.
When lie left this city, the w.hoiopress brayed over
his departure, except ourselves. Cant, hypocrisy
and snuilliug pretention to religion is our abomination ; and whenever we see an individual uf
this kind, rising like a soap-bubble, sell-inllated,
we rejoice to see him explode, collapse and bust
bis bi ler. The pious Mr. Stanley didn't want to
educate Negroes—turned Nigger-catcher. Cou-
scions that be had no business to accept the position
of Military Governor of his contjuered native State,
he tries to conciliate his Carolina friends by failing
in his duty to the Government. We are glad he
has been exploded. Eet chloride of lime be scattered over bis past history.

The Washington correspondent|;1 ' he Sunday
AA yen,-:, ObPHBCB 0. KSRB, gives the lollowing
description ofadnel fought between two officers
u! tho M.a-.ki-vi 1 r.v-v'iv
In tbe evening there was a ball, to which a mini*
ber of the women o! Amerlc were Invites. Cap -
tain VHtlam Browu came up from Andomac on
purpose to attend, and looked, as tlie General of
(he Mackerel Itrigade genteoly sseil it, like n
hag of indigo that had been ont without B.U UTD
brella In a hard shower of brass buttons. Tbe general has auacuto perception of the Beuutiful my
hoy.
Villiam took lhe Oa h qIz times, and then took
a survey of the festive scene ihrough the bottom ol
a tumbler. Th* first person bQieoogloeed was the
youngest Miss Mui-vjiiir* wuls/.ing like a dunuiged
balloon, with Oaptaln Hob Shorty. Captain Bob
was spinning around like u dislocated pair ot
tongs, and smirked like a Imppy fiend. Villiam
gave one stare, put the tumbler Id his pocket, aud
then made a iioo-Iine iu.- the pair.
"Mtffl Unggtns" said be, "you'll oblcege m0
hy dropping that air mess of brass buttons and
moustaches, and dance with me."
"I beg your pardiug, sir,"'.said tfles.MuggtDS*
with dignity " but I obooses my own company."
'■ Villiam," eaid Captain Hob Shorty, " if you
don't take that big nose of yours away, it will bo
my painful duty to Bet it a little further hack in
your repulsive countenance."
Then Villiam toa* mail. He hastily buttoned
his coat up to his ueck, took a bite of tobacco, and
says he:
One of the most unprincipled '-best public instructors" has boeu for somo time sounding a note
of warniug, which is significant of the future, lie
prophesies in.his paper that the day of statesmen
and civilians is over in the Uuited States ; that
the "politicians," as he calls them, who "have
corrupted tbe fountains of legislation," " polluted
the purity" ol Government, ' broken up the Union'
by their " game of spoils and plunder," and '■ hail
the war as tbeir harvest time, robbing and cheating the Government," and perpetrating " all manner of villainy," will he driven out by " the men
wbo are now fighting the battles of the country,"
and who must take the place of those " scoundrels"
In the Government and Congress. The victory ofthe
Union will not be complete 'till the rank and liie
army and the officers educated at West Point,' who
hav
